MIXTAPE 317's 2026 iHeart Radio Jingle Ball Predictions
The iHeart Radio Jingle Ball lineup drops tomorrow and the MIXTAPE 317 team can’t wait to see who will perform on the iconic holiday stages around the U.S. this year. Here are the artists we'd love to see this year on the Winter Festival!
ADÉLA - EC's Pick
ADÉLA has been on an unstoppable rise this year. She opened for Demi Lovato on the It’s Not That Deep Tour, got fans buzzing at festivals like Lollapalooza and Reading & Leeds, then debuted at #4 on the Billboard 200 with her first full-length album, PRIMA. Now she’s bringing The Red Bottoms Tour across North America. Before she jets off for the European leg in early 2027, I’d love to see ADÉLA sleigh the Jingle Ball stage with “Nicole Kidman” and “Ain’t in LA”!

Freya Skye - Maggz's Pick
Through countless sold out shows across the world, the teen superstar has been performing for her passionate fans nonstop on her Stars Align Tour. She would bring so many new fans to Jingle Ball crowds with her bright energy and catchy hits. Her newest single “Bad Taste” along with fan favorite “silent treatment” would make perfect setlist options.

no na - Rebecca's Pick
This four member girl group from Indonesia has been making waves since their debut in early 2025 with hits like “Rollerblade” and “Honk!” Though just over a year old, no na has been a global hit since their popular release “Work,” which highlights their high intensity dance numbers. Their debut album Island Girl continues their sound of “island pop,” thrusting Indonesian language sound and culture into mainstream music. I would love to see a modernized take of a classic Christmas song with the group’s signature “island pop” sound.

P1Harmony - Rebecca's Pick
P1Harmony has been killing it this year participating in several music fests around the world. After their explosive sets at KCON LA, Life Park in Istanbul and their upcoming Headlining performance at 82World this October, I'd love to see the six members at Jingle Ball again this year to ring in the Winter Season and make it icy!

PinkPantheress - Aubry's Pick
The British producer and singer-songwriter sensation has made waves in the music industry with her bubbly alt-pop tracks. From the Olympic virality of “Stateside” to her upcoming GTA 6 soundtrack feature debut, PinkPantheress has defined the cultural heartbeat of 2026, earning her millions of fans across the globe.

Zara Larsson - Bella's Pick
Zara Larsson has shown herself to be a master at live performances. Her music creates a fun and lively atmosphere where the audience is just as involved in the performances as the dancers on stage. Although she's known for her summer flavor of music, I would be curious to see how she'd tackle a holiday theme. Holiday music is not just hymns and ballads, so I think Larsson would be an excellent surprise guest to bring in the holiday spirit again this year!
